The immediate past President of the United States, Donald Trump, has stated that he expects his arrest next week, precisely on Tuesday.
He called on the people of America to engage in a massive protest for his release.
The Ex-US President made this known on his Truth Social media platform.
Trump stated that their country was being destroyed and they must salvage America.
“The far and away leading republican candidate and former president of the United States of America, will be arrested on Tuesday of next week. Protest, take our nation back!” Mr Trump yelled in caps on his Truth social platform on Saturday morning at 7:27 a.m.
“They’re killing our nation as we sit back & watch. We must save America! Protest, protest, protest!!!” the former president said in a post.
However, his team had stated that their was no any official communication from the law enforcement agencies in that regard, but the former president made the post according to some “illegal leaks from the Justice Department and the DA’s office.”
“President Trump is rightfully highlighting his innocence and the weaponization of our injustice system,” it stated.
Trump had allegedly made a $130,000 hush payment to a porn star, Stormy Daniels, in 2016.
The former US President apparently had an affair, with Daniels which caused his indictment by a Manhattan grand jury.
However, Mr Trump has denied the allegation.
Mr Trump’s ex-lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, mediated in the deal and was reportedly said to have delivered the money to Ms Daniels.
He admitted guilt to violating the financial regulations guiding his profession in 2018 and consequently went to jail for three years.
Mr Trump’s demand for a protest for his release was similar to the 6 January, 2021 Capitol incident when he allegedly called on his supporters to take to the streets to protest the emergence of Joe Biden as the President of the United States.
Speaking to the New York Times on Saturday, Mr Cohen said “Donald would have no reason to put out the statement unless he has been contacted by the DANY and advised accordingly.
“Donald’s post is eerily similar to his battle cry prior to the January 6th insurrection; including calling for protest.
“By doing so, Donald is hoping to rile his base, witness another violent clash on his behalf and profit from it by soliciting contributions.”
